Bethany Worship Center - Katy Bethany Worship Center

The Baptism of the Holy Ghost is essential for every believer to fulfill God’s purpose for our lives. Sadly, the church has been separated over this issue and we remained powerless. The baptism of the Holy Ghost is for us today! Pastor Matt explores the baptism of the Holy Ghost and seeks to establish a Biblical formula to receiving Him.

The Lord is calling us to deep places; waters to swim in; a deeper relationship that prepares the way for a greater manifestation of the Holy Spirit. We must answer the call to greater surrender. Our gateway to revival is in the presence of the Lord. Respond to His invitation. The world needs an outpouring.

In our age of technological advancement, we are always looking for the next generation of product. Jesus came to earth so we could be fully alive and become the next generation of the Kingdom of God manifested on earth. What was ruined in the garden of Eden, was reconciled on the cross and manifested on the day of Pentecost. We cannot be a next generation church without the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus told his disciples not to start on their mission until they received power from on high. On the day of Pentecost, the Holy Spirit was poured out on them and they turned the world upside down. We must get back to being filled and under the control of the Holy Spirit in our hearts, lives and churches. The Lord is calling us to increase our capacity for the Holy Spirit.

Jesus came that we could have life (Zoe - the God kind of life; real and genuine - the same type of like Jesus walked in on the earth). Too many of us are not walking in all that was provided for by the death, burial and resurrection. Learn how to be fully alive in Christ Jesus!

Our biggest weapon in our spiritual arsenal is the presence of God. He is our victory and our relationship with Him is the greatest privilege. This relationship requires brokenness, vulnerability and honesty before Him. Like the woman in Luke 7, God is calling us to pour out what’s in our jar in sincere worship to connect with Him. Accept the invitation to His presence. Pour it out.

Lord, what’s taking so long!?! Have you ever asked God that question? You may be wondering right now, “God since you can do anything, why am I still in this situation? Why haven’t I seen the change, the answer, the breakthrough that I’m waiting on? God wants to teach you how to fight. He could do it FOR YOU but He wants to do it THROUGH YOU. He is taking you this route to teach you the art of war!
